AD member here. I saw my name on the PRO Y list posted on this forum but can't access BOL with a busted CAC and my triad hasn't heard anything. Anyone know how the acceptance letter and stuff works?

I am using this document to prepare for OCS. Of course things are subjected to change, but most of the Bravo knowledge is there.

Same here, on the list but my recruiter hasn't answered. I'm excited though! Congrats!

Any updates on your recruiter calling you yet? I still haven't been called yet, lol. My dad (retired navy) told me to wait 1 week from today, and if nothing then he said I should definitely call him next Friday.

I got a one sentence text and no response after. But my recruiter is also about to retire soooo here's to the next recruiter.

Proc-N
OAR: 40
GPA: 3.08
Prior service: No
Degree: Information Security and Assurance
LOR: active O5, college professor (retired O5)

Is anyone else have one more chance at the OAR?

My recruiter said that I could do a dual enrollment which I can get set up on the enlisted side incase I don't get selected for that board. He also suggested that I should enlist, save my OAR chance, and submit my package within two years of active duty. I am looking into IT or CT for enlisted side and SWO or IWC for officer.

If you're Dead set on commissioning, Navy is not the only option too. From the general look of things, it becomes a lot more complicated to earn our commission while enlisted. Perhaps it would be best to retake the OAR, reapply but at the same time apply to ARMY OCS, Marine, Airforce, coast guard etc, chances are you'll get picked up by at least one of them. For me If I had a Pro rec N for this board I would have walked straight to the army recruiter took the asvab and apply for multiple branches to maximize my chances that I'd get something.

That would be good for him, another number for his monthly quota. On the other hand, you don't need to enlist to retake the OAR. I would rather study really well, and retake it. There's a study guide in this forum that you could use, if you go enlisted, you might have to wait until you get to you finish recruit training and any other school, which depends on the specialty you choose (AT, CT, IT, etc.) Is how long it would take you to apply. Some commands will require at least a year to for your first evaluation to be able to apply, in the ocs application 1420.1b states that you need at least three. Is your choice, but it's the long road, that's why I said it will work for him.
